5 cm of fresh snow has accumulated in Niseko in the 12 hours to 7am.

It’s not snowing but mountains are covered by white clouds this morning. I went to Niseko Village to ride Mizuno area. Since it didn’t look good from Gondola and there were 200 people in front of me already so I changed my mind and went to gate 3 (Hirafu top gate). Snow was very hard wind pack at top area but it was soft and fresh in middle forest area.
